PRACTICE TASK 2: #RELATE ME

RELATED LITERATURE

The relationship between student success— defined by attendance, grades, and discipline—and
residential arrangements of students due to the marital status of parents has become more apparent in recent
decades and has created a new at-risk indicator (Amato 2005; Hett 1983; Bank et al. 1993; Grych and Fincham
1990). Lack of communication can be damaging effect of strict parenting. Children afraid of constant criticism
and rebuke learn to keep their thoughts and feelings to themselves, as an act of self-preservation. This
unhealthy behavior can be further aggravated when children come across problems they don’t know how to
solve (Matlala 2014). The family is a natural social system with properties all its own, one that has developed a
set of rules, roles, a power structure, forms of communication, and ways of negotiating and problem solving
that allow various tasks to be performed effectively (Goldenberg & Goldenberg, 1980). The way the family
functions has tremendous implications for how individuals develop and function. Family transactional patterns
form the matrix within which the psychological growth of members takes place. Therefore, to understand an
individual, we must look beyond his or her internal processes. We need to examine that person's various
relationships with other people, especially as they occur within a family context. Even though it has been
persistently stressed that each person is an autonomous individual who controls his or her own destiny, there
is increasing evidence that "man is not separate from his family, from those about him and from his
multigenerational past as he fancied himself to be" (Bowen,' 1975, p. 369). A system is a set of entities with
components that covary, with each element dependent on the state of functioning of each other element with
which it has a relationship (Miller, 1978). A family system is governed by rules, which may or may not be
overtly stated but which are understood by all family members (Jackson, 1965). These rules determine the
patterning of behavior within the family. Each family develops its own set of homeostatic mechanisms, which
keep the system in balance.

Communication is variously defined by different experts in the field of family studies. Sorrels and Ford
(1969) have defined communication as verbal and nonverbal behaviors, used when two or more people
interact to exchange information as to clarify, define, and test the relationship between the participants.
Communication refers to social interaction or transactions, and involves all the verbal and nonverbal clues and
symbols which people may or can use to give and receive a message about a message, referred to as Meta
communication (Satir, 1967).

RELATED STUDY

According to the study, Communication is variously defined by different experts in the field of family
studies. Sorrels and Ford (1969) have defined communication as verbal and nonverbal behaviors, used when
two or more people interact to exchange information as to clarify, define, and test the relationship between
the participants. Communication refers to social interaction or transactions, and involves all the verbal and
nonverbal clues and symbols which people may or can use to give and receive a message about a message,
referred to as Meta communication (Satir, 1967). Faulty communication, or frequently lack of communication,
would seem to be one of the major reasons why so many families do not function at their optimal level.
Counseling with married couples, as well as with parents and children, has led many people in the various
helping professions to the general conclusion that lack of effective communication lies at the root of many a
family's problems (Ruesch & Bateson, 1951; Satir, 1967; Watzlawick et al, 1967). Thus faulty communication
can justifiably be labeled "the rock on which families flounders" (Ard, 1969).

Sorrels and Ford (1969) have outlined the Bateson et al. (1969) theory and Satirls (1967) application of
it to conjoint family therapy in the following way: communication, behavior, and interaction are synonymous
terms for a wide range of verbal and nonverbal behavior which defines, tests, and clarifies the nature of a
relationship. Haley (1962) has emphasized that communication theory and research should be concerned with
objective, observable behavior, relationships and communication processes, such as the frequency and length
of individual speeches, rather than individual perceptions or affective states. An example of his research
emphasizing communication is a coalition experiment, in which a father, mother, and child were seated at a
round table with high partitions which prevented them from seeing each other. Each person had four buttons
which were the only means of communicating with the others. Points were accumulated by forming coalitions,
with the person with the highest number of points winning the game.

PRACTICE TASK 3: INTRODUCE MY STUDY

INTRODUCTION

Every family is unique and communicates in its own way. A healthy happy family relies heavily on
communication. You interact with family members not only with your words but also with your body language
and actions. If you communicate in a negative way or don't communicate at all, it can only get worse when
you get older and can even affect who you become as an adult.

Yelling, holding grudges, keeping secrets, accusing, giving silent treatment, using ultimatums or threats,
calling others bad instead of the action, and causing harm are all examples of poor family communication. If
these issues persist, you will never feel connected to your family again. The way parents talk to their children
or siblings talk to one another may have an impact on their positive growth as adolescents. If unresolved
negative feelings persist, young people may develop anxiety and depression. When children do not value
authority or engage in high-risk behaviors such as illegal activity, they can develop behavioral issues.

Improper communication leads to erroneous assumptions, the perception of being able to read
people's minds, and a tendency to jump to conclusions. When you don't know what's going on with your
family, it's easy to get caught up in unnecessary anxiety, fear, and concern, which can lead to stress.
Arguments would be easier to start. Your self-esteem may weaken, and you will be unable to speak to
someone in your family. If this disconnect persists, no one will care or be concerned about the other, and your
family will be torn apart.

II. REVISING A WRITTEN RESEARCH REPORT

SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

This chapter presents the summary of findings and conclusion of this study, as well as the
recommendations formulated by the researcher based on the result of the study.

CONCLUSION

Based on the findings of this study, the following conclusions were drawn:
 1. Not every family has a positive relationship with one another. Some children are affected, and they are
not happy about it. Lack of family communication has a significant influence on children in particular.
They need someone to talk to and the feeling of having someone to lean on.
2. A lack of communication in the family can lead to depression, anxiety, and other major issues. It shows
that many families do not have family gatherings or strong family communication.
3. Based on the researcher's analysis of the data and the number of recommendations made, it appears
that the respondents are fully aware that they do not have a strong family communication and that
they are knowledgeable that this has an impact on them. They've already come up with some remedies
to their family problems.

FINDINGS

1. According to the findings of the researcher, the majority of the respondents strongly believe that lack of
family communication has an impact between parent-child relationships.

2. Based on the interpretation of the researcher and a survey questionnaire given to members of a particular
household, the researcher makes recommendations to help the respondents in improving their family
communication.

3. According to the researcher's findings, it appears that there is a family that has poor communication. It
shows that it has an effect on the children, and the respondents are well aware that there is a lack of
communication among their family members.

RECOMMENDATION

Based on the findings and conclusions of the study, the following recommendations we formulated are:

1. Community groups should conduct seminars and other educational programs to raise awareness about the
negative impact of lack of communication between parent-child relationships.

2. This type of issue should be discussed, and the target subjects should be given some advice on how to
handle it.

3. Continuation of this study to broaden the knowledge of the people about this matter.

PRACTICE TASK 2: STRIKE MY ABSTRACT

The purpose of this research is to find out how a lack of family communication affects parent-child
relationships. The study then looks into the effects and consequences of family members not communicating
with one another. After that, the attention is narrowed on parent-child relationships and conflict in
specifically. The study concludes with recommendations for positive relationship maintenance strategies that
can improve communication between parent- child relationships.

Keywords: Parent-Child Relationships, Lack of Communication, Impact, Solutions.

This study explored the impact of lack of communication between parent-child relationships and possible
recommendations on how to improve family communication. Specifically, this study answered the questions:

1. What are the effects of poor family communication?

Low morale can be exacerbated by a lack of communication. Because poor communication can lead to
miscommunication, wasted opportunities, conflict, the spread of false information, and hostility.
2. How does poor family communication affect relationships?
Relationships are weakened by poor family communication. Because, instead of discussing or resolving
the situation as soon as possible, they opted to remain silent and overthink. If they haven't gotten over
their bad feelings, young individuals can develop anxiety and depression.
3. How can we improve the quantity and quality of the communication between the members of
your family?
Taking time out of your busy schedule to talk with your family members is the best way to improve
family communication. Make sure there are no distractions, such as the television or your phone, in
the room. Pay attention to what the other person is saying and ask about their feelings. Giving a gentle
touch or a hug can show that you understand how they feel. Do not dismiss someone's feelings by
implying that they are being exaggerated or mistaken in their feelings. They won't speak to you again if
you don't comply. Speak to yourself in the manner in which you would like to be spoken to. It is critical
to maintain that line of contact in order to retain your family in your life at all times.
